England suffer Women's World Cup final heartache against SpainEngland women’s players are reportedly ready to go on strike in an effort to receive more money from the Football Association after reaching the World Cup final in Australia last month. The Lionesses are said to be chasing a pay packet of £50,000 each and would have demanded £100,000 per player had they become world champions. The pay would cover prize money and commercial revenues after the FA received £2.4million more than any previous Women’s World Cup following the team’s performance. And players also want to clarify their pay for the long term rather than negotiating before and after each major tournament.
